It's a great extension for UA/GA4 debugging, but AA debugging with it is quite awkward. At the minimum - please make a difference between links and pageviews obvious. It's important. See how the AA debugger does it with the blue coloring for the links. I haven't yet dug deep enough, but I kinda anticipate lists and products to be reported poorly here.

Helpful extension, might be more convenient to use than GTM preview mode for some people

Actually it is my fav tool but GA4 events are sometimes working sometimes not working, I hope they can fix it soon
